Q: My macbook air keeps overheating Also theres crumbs under keys could someone clean it?
Hey, could I ask some questions? My macbook air keeps overheating and the fan keeps making an overheating sound and it wont stop(I downloaded an app that controls the fan and keeps it as cool as it can get and it helps as much as it can but not a lot). Also theres crumbs and dirt under my keys could someone fix/clean it?How much would these cost (seperatly)? And how long would it take? Thanks

Regarding the heat issue, try a SMC reset:

If no success, run an Apple Hardware Test:

Note that an error free AHT is not conclusive.
regarding the 'crumbs', use a fine brush in concert with some compressed air to dislodge them. It also might be a good idea to open the MBA and inspect the interior for foreign matter.
Ciao.
